I settled comfortably in my recliner, turned on the television, and was delighted to see that I had recorded a few of my favorite programs.

It wasn't the programs that jump-started my thinking about EV's, it was the commercials. In every commercial break, there was an advertisement for an EV. And not just from one or two manufacturers, but from several. This pattern continued for hours. Yes, I'm confessing to watching TV for several hours. Now that my mushy thinking has been explained, I'll continue.

I use shifts in commercial's focus as a "Canary in a Coal Mine" to help me understand current events and prepare for the future. This number of EV commercials hints of desperation.

Where do we go from here. Massive investment has been made on behalf of EVs. This will result in massive losses if the public refuses to cooperate. I'm not invested in EVs. I don't own one. And I have no intention of buying one. I also realize that people hate losses. And powerful people who face losses often use their power to escape the consequences of their unwise choices.

What worries me: when persuasion fails, force follows.

What will this force look like? I welcome opinions.

Cheers, PW.

P.S. Yesterday, I had my very first ride in an EV. (A Chevrolet) It was quiet and comfortable. The worrying aspects of EV ownership such as charging, range, repair cost, fire risk, and rapid depreciation had no impact on yesterday's experience.
